Is it immoral to breach a contract? Should a breaching party be punished more harshly for willful breach? Does it matter if the victim of breach engaged in contributory fault? Is there room for a calculus of fault within the 'efficient breach' framework? For generations, contract liability has been viewed as a no-fault regime, in sharp contrast to tort liability. Is this dichotomy real? Is it justified? How do the American and European traditions compare? In exploring these and related issues, the essays in this volume bring together a variety of outlooks, including economic, psychological, philosophical, and comparative approaches to law.Breach of contractUnited StatesContractsUnited StatesBreach of contractContracts346.7302/2Ben-Shahar OmriPorat ArielUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910459760903321Fault in American contract law2465164UNINA04562nam 2200769Ia 450 991078308920332120230207223336.00-674-02882-110.4159/9780674028821(CKB)1000000000003240(StDuBDS)AH24023342(SSID)ssj0000161186(PQKBManifestationID)12038022(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000161186(PQKBWorkID)10190927(PQKB)10514193(SSID)ssj0000279810(PQKBManifestationID)11214213(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000279810(PQKBWorkID)10268374(PQKB)10996587(MiAaPQ)EBC3299989(Au-PeEL)EBL3299989(CaPaEBR)ebr5004910(OCoLC)923108499(DE-B1597)574568(DE-B1597)9780674028821(EXLCZ)99100000000000324019981112e20011999 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtccrGender, emotion, and the family[electronic resource] /Leslie BrodyCambridge, Mass.

Culture, ethnicity, status and particularly the organisation of the family all affect emotional expression.Do women express their feelings more than men? Popular stereotypes say they do, but in this text, Leslie Brody breaks with conventional wisdom. Her work integrates biological and socio-cultural developments to explore the nature and extent of gender differences in emotional expression, as well as the endlessly complex questions of how such differences come about. ;Nurture, far more than nature, it is argued, emerges as the stronger force in fashioning gender differences in emotional expression. Brody shows that whether and how men and women express their feelings varies widely form situation to situation and from culture to culture, and depends on a number of particular characteristics including age, ethnicity, cultural background, power, and status.; Especially pertinent is the organization of the family, in which boys and girls elicit and absorb different emotional strategies. Brody also examines the importance of gender roles, whether in the family, the peer group, or the culture at large, as men and women use various patterns of emotional expression to adapt to power and status imbalances.EmotionsSex differencesFamiliesSex differencesSex differences (Psychology)Stereotypes (Social psychology)Interpersonal communicationSex differencesFamiliesEmotionsEmotionsSex differences.FamiliesSex differences.Sex differences (Psychology)Stereotypes (Social psychology)Interpersonal communicationSex differences.Families.Emotions.152.4Brody Leslie1520287MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783089203321Gender, emotion, and the family3758815UNINA
